This mountainous region suffers from extensive deforestation, which has further deteriorated the soil’s capacity to retain water, resulting in low agricultural yields, poor health, poverty and vulnerability to intense weather. The area also lacks the resources, materials and infrastructures to collect rainwater.

Our Goals: Improve access to safe water in order to increase the level of health and agricultural output; Ensure food security; Increase household incomes; Raise awareness of water-related issues through multidisciplinary shows and educational and artistic workshops; Promote gender equality; Develop leadership and mobilize youth so that they become agents of change. ONE DROP develops integrated, innovative projects with an international scope, in which water plays a central role as a creative force in generating positive, sustainable effects for local and foreign populations and in the fight against poverty.

Guided by the unique orbital perspective of men and women who live and work in Space, our vision is for Fragile Oasis to help people and organizations work together to overcome the challenges facing humanity on Earth.
